Canadian ShareOwner Investments Inc. is an organisation based on University Avenue in Toronto and so 'Canadian shareowner' may refer to people with membership there. It also may refer to any shareowner of Canadian heritage with any amount of shares in any business or particularly those who own shares in Canadian businesses.

In order to access the Wells Fargo shareowner services, one must visit the "Shareowners Online" website. One must log in to the website to access one's account.

I presume the difference between a shareholder and shareowner is that shareholders are fiduciaries that hold shares for safekeeping until the shares are properly transferred to shareowners who outright own shares in equitable title; thus, being the ultimate customer and beneficial owners. Shareholders are custodians that have a minority interest in the shares, as opposed to a majority or material interest.

No it does not. A stock split is, in essence, a very large stock dividend. In cases of stock splits, a company may double, triple or quadruple the number of shares outstanding. The value of each share is merely lowered; economic reality does not change at all. It is, therefore, completely irrational for investors to get excited over stock splits. The person will still own the same % as before.
